As well as on Tolkien himself; I thought his comments about Tolkien and Lewis were quite perceptive. Really one of the few people that can provide significant insights on both. And I also enjoyed his pleasure at revealing -- while claiming that he probably shouldn't -- that PB told him that they took some of the dialogue for the scene on Mt.

That's kinda funny that he would post it on Facebook today. In any event, I'm glad he did, and that you linked to it here. It was one of the better interviews that I have heard. I wasn't really thinking I would listen to it to the end, but I ended up doing so gladly.

What's the benefit of the magnetism? So they can double as refrigerator adornments?

Sorry, meant to reply earlier - the bookmarks are basically one strip folded in half, with magnets on the reverse of each half, so when you put a leaf of the book between the two halves of the bookmark it "grips" the leaf and helps keep it in place.

This t-shirt has some interesting images, though I'm not sure all are new...
